Gay Forum

Yes, Welcome back to the Gay Forum Awards 2017. Its a stunning night tonight in which we look back on the final results of the shortlist nominees to the GFOAs. After much deliberating by users, we are finally ready to unveil each category one by one, and will be doing so once every 5 minutes. Please, be sure to congratulate each user for their achievements!

Best Newbie


This is the award for the user who's the new kid on the block. Not entirely established yet, they show a lot of charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent, and are certain to be a positive force on the forum in the months and years to come.

The shortlist is:
Simple_Man
Poptart
Unfortunately at Ben's request, his nomination was removed last minute. We apologies to those of you who voted for him unaware of this.


And the winner is:
Simple_Man!

Coongratulations! Your shiny GFOA badge will be in your PMs at the end of the ceremony. Give it up for our winner!

Best Mod


It takes a lot to be a mod. Impartiality, a strong head, resilience, and the ability to oversee menial tasks go a long way in creating the magic that is the forum. This nominees for this award have all in some way contributed to the ethos of Gayforum.org in significant ways, and are recognised for it tonight:

The shortlist is:
Sherri
René
Brenden

And the winner is:
Sherri!

Congratulations, Mod of the Year 2017!

The Shortlist is:
What Are You Doing Right Now?
Family Feud Round 1
The Cute Thread

Acpro

A tie! Prince_G_24 and Mestaris!

Underated


This award is for the user who may not be the funniest, may not be the smartest, may not be the prettiest, and may not be the social queen, but is certainly worth their weight in gold. Underrated users have snuck beneath the radar for too long, and now is the time to celebrate them.

The shortlist is:
Jzone
Marmaduke
Mestaris

And the winner is:
Another tie! Jzone and Mestaris!
Congratulations both, and here's to hoping you get the recognition you deserve.

Congratulations to all of the winners of the 2017 GFOAs.With many thanks to our nominees, and espescially our voters, thank you everyone for shaping the awards this year. Here's to 2018!

Winners: Your awards will be PMd to you in the coming days. Thank you everyone <3

Congratulations to all the winners, and thank you to those that decided to nominate me in categories I do not meet the qualifications for. Part of me will forever wonder if I should have voted for myself after all.

Mostly thank you to George for actually seeing this through.

Congrats to all the winners and thanks as well.

BTW:

Yaay!

Congrats to myself and all the other winners

Yay! Lots of my votes won out . Lots of them were difficult. Everybody is hot here! Kind of strange given that we are all internet nerds .

C'mon though, you all know Rene and Brenden do more for the boards than I do xP. Still, I appreciate the votes. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the spammers and sharers of personal information who make sure my job here is safe . May your Chinese merchandise links and desperate requests for somebody to sext you never die!

Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.

But congratulations to all the other winners!

Thanks for putting this on George!
